Popis: The question of the relationship between the head of state and the executive branch is of fundamental importance in governance. In a presidential republic, the president is functionally and structurally integrated into the executive branch and heads the system of relevant bodies. In a parliamentary republic, the president is distant from the executive branch. In a mixed republican form of government, the president is not a structural component of the executive branch but is substantially integrated with it by functional duties. The level of this combination is significant and causes a dualism of executive power. The presence of the two leading executive bodies prevents abuse of executive power. This issue is becoming extremely important for many post-Soviet republics.
